Reviews for this host's other properties

Dear Istanbul visitors. The apartment is fully sufficient for the purpose to stay. Small but clean. The owners are very nice. I can with some calm, agree price performance. Greetings from the Black Forest C. Kaya

The owner treated us very well at all times and helped to guide us in the coudad. As for the apartment, had everything we needed and was well located The bad thing is that it was a -1 (do not put it in the ad) and was very moist and had many spiders and mosquitoes ... In winter cold would not go but in summer it was fine

Hello enjoyed travel, My girlfriend and I have really enjoyed our holiday in istanbul. The accommodation was exactly the same as it was announced on the site of windu. There was plenty of choice but I relied on the stories that people had written at this property. What is important here though is that you're mobile. (Can walk) There are few if any places in istanbul that level. I give our apartment as an 8 rating.

Erdal and her people are super duper helpful and always been there for us. They help me through out our vacation for everything. They even email me in advance about the attraction and anythin that u need to know about istanbul.
I am really2 feel blessed to choose them to be my host. The house is clean but to be frank it is not at very high comfortable since i have two kids but it is still a very good place to deal with especially when ure in honeymoon. i can get any information i would like to know and thanks to every tips u gave me. Really2 appreciate for everything!!

Erdal and especially Seyma with the excellent German skills were very worried about our "well-being". The apartment of Real Life was very clean, comfortable furnishings and central. This is the apartment in the basement and look out the windows on a house passage and therefore the apartment is no daylight, would necessarily have to be listed on the homepage.

Unfortunately the apartment was unacceptable. It was located in the basement, which was not mentioned on the website. There was no natural light, the kitchen window was located on a below street level, completely littering the street, the bedroom window into a dark tunnel. The apartment was cold and damp in all rooms, mold on the walls. Too bad we moved out the next day!

Very friendly hosts, very helpful that the niece speaks excellent German. Clean, nice Quariter, quiet - despite of busy location. Area around somewhat dilapidated but not far to walk to Istiklal Caddesi.
